What to Expect:

Day 1 – Wednesday, August 27 (5–8 PM)

  Upload your shots from the day before and learn the basics of editing in Lightroom, including sequencing and selecting your strongest images.
• Final Group Critique (6–7 PM):
  Print your best photographs and share them in a supportive critique session. This collaborative review will help you refine your approach, gain new perspectives, and celebrate the images you’ve created.

What You’ll Gain:

• A working knowledge of exposure and composition
• Practice capturing dynamic movement and natural depth
• Hands-on experience shooting on location in a lively downtown setting
